Adding To A Tb

[+Rainwater]

Is it wrong to add stuff to a TB?....I had an idea to add a little tag to all the TB's I find saying it had visited the area. Is this a bad idea?

Ive seen them attached to bugs I have held- A wooden GC geo-coin.

Not sure on the etiqutette tho- ?

I say bad idea.

 

That's not what the owner had in mind. There are some TBs that have a mission something like that. We have one in this area that says it's to pick up pieces from the cache it's currently in.

 

If you want to add something to a TB, don't do it untill you verify with the owner that it's ok.

I agree: yes, it is wrong. Check with the owner first.

This does not sould like a good idea to me.

 

I sometimes add a small laminated instruction tag if the bug has a goal and the owner didn't include instructions. Most of my caching is done on the road so when I pick up a bug in Eugene, Oregon and then find out when I get to Seattle that it wanted to go south it gives the bug an adventure that maybe it didn't want.

 

It isn't fair to say that a bug shouldn't be picked up if you (the finder) don't know where it is going. Without an instruction tag the journey just gets a little longer.

Changing a TB by adding something without contacting the owner may upset that TBs owner.

(Note that there are TBs that explicitly give permission to add stuff to them on their web page or their goal tags. They're special...)
